Beast Throne

Chapter 567 Blank Picture Frame
people are absent...

Before knocking on the door, Wu Tong knew that his trip was in vain again.

There were no signs of life in the house, and the door was already covered in dust. Judging by the thickness of the dust, no one had lived in it for at least half a month.If Nanna came back, at least she should have left footprints in front of the door.

This result is definitely not what Wu Tong wants to see. His first task now is not to find out how the devil hides his breath, but to find Nanna to ensure her safety.Especially now at night, if Nanna is not at home, there are so few places she can be.

Taking two deep breaths, Wu Tong tried his best to calm himself down. It is absolutely useless to be anxious at this time. He must immediately think of where Nanna might be, and then check one by one.

First of all, of course, the barracks of the Royal Knights. The Royal Knights must have brought back the news of the mission failure, and then waited for Ogg to come back while resting.If Nanna was in the Royal Knights, it would be absolutely impossible for her to leave her comrades and go home to sleep alone with her temperament, especially if Ogg is dead or alive now.

The other place is the imperial palace. If Su Bolai wants to strike, let his target go on duty, and then direct and act out a double reed that is assassinated, he can kill the target in a logical manner.Of course, the responsibility rests on the assassin, and has nothing to do with him.

After hesitating for a while, Wu Tong decided to go to the barracks of the Royal Knights first.Just like what Ferrin said before, after all, there is no definite news that Ogg has died. It would be too unwise for Su Bolai to do something at this time.Judging from Su Bolai's performance in recent times, he should not be so impatient.

After making up his mind, Wu Tong didn't hesitate any longer, and set off immediately.Wu Tong had been to the barracks of the Royal Knights once, and that was when he made a bet with Duke Bulvida.Departing from the Tulip Manor and passing through the palace on the way, Wu Tong tried to fly as high as possible so as not to disturb the messy and unidentified people who might exist in the palace.However, because of this, Wu Tong himself did not have the opportunity to see the current situation of the palace clearly, he could only vaguely see the lights, and it was still very calm.

Just as Wu Tong had thought beforehand, the barracks of the Royal Knights was really bright, and busy knights could be seen everywhere treating the wounded and those griffins.After experiencing such a shocking explosion, many griffins and knights were injured to varying degrees, but they were anxious and busy on the road at the time, so they couldn't take care of it.

Calculating the time, it shouldn't be long before they came back, so it just caught up with the time when the injury broke out.After a day of tension, the knights finally returned to the station and reported the news. As soon as they relaxed their hearts, they would naturally feel the piercing pain in the wound.

Wu Tong is no stranger to this situation. Most of the soldiers trained in the army are like this. If they are injured during training, they will insist on completing the task as if nothing happened, but once the task is completed, they all become wounded.

Probably because he was too busy and flustered, when Wu Tong fell from the sky, no one stepped forward to answer him for a while.Wu Tong snorted twice, and wanted to hold a busy guy to let him see who he was, but he didn't expect that guy to turn around with a tired face and curse a few words, and then went on with his own business.

Wu Tong didn't quite understand that sentence, but it should roughly be a famous aphorism like "a good dog doesn't get in the way".

When encountering such a thing, Wu Tong couldn't help but smile bitterly. If it was a stealth mission, this kind of scene couldn't be more suitable.It's a pity that Wu Tong's visit this time didn't seem to be low-key, he just wanted to attract attention.

"Is there anyone at home! I'm looking for someone!"

Helpless, Wu Tong had no choice but to yell, and then snapped his fingers to send out a bright and excessively golden fireball above his head, for fear that others would not see him.

When the knights heard Wu Tong's shout, they were stunned for a moment, and when they turned around, they saw the golden ball of light, and then took advantage of the opportunity to see Wu Tong's face under the ball of light.This scene was quite funny. Facing Wu Tong, a criminal who should be concerned about every day, the surprised knights took a long time to recognize who Wu Tong was, and then took a long time to react to them. What should be done.

Fortunately, the usual training of the knights is still good. Although it took a long time to make a judgment, the knights are still as fast as the wind when they act.Wu Tong only heard the sound of metal colliding, and then he was surrounded by everyone. Countless crossbows were aimed at him, and there were even heavy bed crossbows that were not inconvenient to use before.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm not here to make trouble, where is your captain? Or ask your person in charge to come out, I have something to do. If I wanted to do something, I would have died long ago when you were not paying attention." Wu Tong Looking at the appearance of these people who are all wounded, they don't want to make things worse.He said he was looking for the captain and the person in charge, of course he was looking for Nanna, but he was embarrassed to say the name.

Wu Tong was even prepared, as soon as Nanna appeared, he would immediately knock her unconscious and take her away.

The knights looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.Especially the person who let Wu Tong out of the way just now, he was ashamed and even admired Wu Tong a little bit.Look at his demeanor and self-restraint. As a master, he was not only caught but also scolded by them, but he didn't get angry at all. This is the demeanor of a master!

Wu Tong waited, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see appear.The knights had no intention of making a move, but they definitely had no intention of moving away, they just surrounded Wu Tong.When Wu Tong was a little impatient, he saw the knights directly opposite him automatically get out of the way, and a burly knight came out.He was very clean, as if he hadn't participated in the previous mission.

"Is it Master Suzaku?" The knight asked.

Wu Tong nodded, looked at him curiously, and decided in his heart that as long as this kid dared to talk nonsense, he would be chopped up immediately.

"Your Excellency the Duke invites Your Excellency Suzaku to go in to catch up on the old days. Please rest assured that there is absolutely no other meaning." The knight respectfully made a gesture of invitation, pointing to an unremarkable room in the distance.

Wu Tong nodded again, and walked over generously.The knights didn't stop them, but they certainly didn't let go of their guard completely. They still stared at Wu Tong very carefully.The burly knight didn't talk much, he just led the way and led Wu Tong to the door of the room. After pushing the door open, he stepped aside.

Wu Tong walked in alone, only to realize that this room was just a cover-up, it was actually just the entrance of an underground building.Wu Tong didn't like to go into the basement, but it would be out of style to leave after people had already arrived.

The underground structure is as simple as the barracks, without too much decoration.But the room was large, and the walls were covered with portraits, both young and old, but without exception they were all members of the Royal Knights.

Burvida was standing in the room with his back to Wu Tong, staring at the two empty spaces on the wall in a daze. This scene made Wu Tong feel a little sympathetic.Bulveda must be much smarter than others, and perhaps he has already thought of things that others did not think of.

"I thought you might come back, so I'm waiting for you here." Hearing Wu Tong's footsteps, Burvida turned around.Wu Tong had never seen Bulveda look so old. His face was haggard and his eyes were sunken.But this is definitely not because of not having a good rest, but because of the depression in my heart.

"Where's Nanna?" Wu Tong asked straight to the point, sympathizing with everyone, but it didn't care about his business.Besides, others don't know about Oge's plan, but his father Bulveda must have known about it, so he also participated in the incident against him.Although it didn't work out, it was also difficult for Wu Tong to talk to him with a smile. Anyway, he probably wasn't in the mood either.

"She took a small team to look for it, and I didn't ask her to do anything." Burvida was straightforward.

Wu Tong secretly sighed in his heart, he didn't expect this matter to be so troublesome.Burvida didn't say who to look for, but Wu Tong also knew that Nanna must have brought someone to find Ogger, so Wu Tong might as well wait on the sidelines instead of continuing to search.

"Can you tell me what happened at that time, I think the news I got must not be clear to you." Bulveda looked at Wu Tong and said, with a pleading tone in his tone.

Wu Tong couldn't bear to refuse, and there was no need to hide anything, so he told everything he saw and heard, but he didn't mention Su Tu's conjecture.Bulveda was a wise man, and he didn't need to be too explicit.

Burvida was silent again, as if he was digesting Wu Tong's words. This old guy seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and his eyes had lost the composure and confidence in the past.Because this is not only the death of a loved one, but also the collapse of faith.

"Tell the old man, does this matter really have nothing to do with the prince?" After a while, Bulveda asked in a very uncertain tone, as if he wanted to grasp something.

"Your Excellency," Wu Tong frowned, "If I say yes, would you believe me?"

"Old man, old man..." Bulveda's lips twitched for a while, and finally heaved a heavy sigh without saying anything.

Wu Tong looked at the two blank picture frames on the wall, and knew in his heart that one of these two positions might be Burvida himself, and the other might be Ogg.
